TYPO3 CASE within HMENU based on pid - typo3

Question

I am trying to get the second level of my HMENU to be different depending on what the parent id is.
Specifically, I need to add a COA to the TMENU when the pid is a specific number.
I figured I should be able to do this somehow using a CASE, but I haven't found the right setup to get it working right.
This is my incorrect code that shows what I want to do:
lib.mymenu = HMENU
lib.mymenu {
1 = TMENU
1 {
...
}
2 = CASE
2 {
key.field = pid
default = TMENU
default {
stdWrap.wrap = <ul>|</ul>
expAll = 1
NO = 1
NO.wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
}
23 = TMENU
23 {
stdWrap.wrap = <ul>|</ul>
expAll = 1
NO = 1
NO.stdWrap.cObject = COA
NO.stdWrap.cObject {
...
}
}
}
}

Answer 1

I doubt that you have the pid available at that level.
As the main part is identical I would differ only at the stdWrap with a simple if-wrap:
2 = TMENU
2 {
stdWrap.wrap = <ul>|</ul>
expAll = 1
NO = 1
NO {
wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>
/// what wrap do you want to use???
stdWrap.wrap {
cObject = COA
cObject {
:
}
if.equals.field = pid
if.value = 23
}
}
in your code you also use cObject on stdWrap which does not match as stdWrap is no active wrap, but a container for a set of (wrap)functions.
